Ten-8 Industrial

What Ten-8 Industrial does

Ten-8 Industrial (legally Ten-8 Fire and Safety, LLC) is a privately held industrial equipment dealer and service provider headquartered in Lake Wales, Florida. Founded in 1985, the company sells and services refuse and recycling collection vehicles, operating as an authorized dealer for McNeilus, a brand backed by Oshkosh Corporation. Its service territory covers Alabama, Florida, Georgia, and Mississippi, supported by two physical service centers (Lake Wales, FL and Villa Rica, GA) and a mobile field repair capability. The company's customer base is split between municipal solid waste and recycling fleets (primary segment) and private waste haulers (secondary segment), with sales structured around long-cycle fleet procurement.

The company's core product offering is the McNeilus refuse and recycling vehicle lineup, comprising front loaders (Atlantic Series and Meridian), side loaders (Zero Radius and AutoReach), rear loaders, and the Volterra Electric platform. Revenue is generated through three streams: one-time new truck sales, one-time parts sales (across all makes and models, including legacy fleets), and recurring service and warranty work executed at service centers or via mobile repair. Parts are also sold online through the StreetSmart Parts dealer portal. In addition to refuse vehicles, Ten-8 holds an authorized Revolution Concrete Mixers partnership providing service, warranty repairs, and parts throughout Florida, extending its heavy-duty vocational equipment footprint.

Ten-8 operates a field-sales go-to-market model with direct customer engagement through its service center locations and mobile service crews, supplemented by a content-driven website and downloadable buyer guides. The company is privately held with no disclosed institutional investors or parent company, and operates without a software or API surface. Its competitive position rests on the regional authorized McNeilus franchise, 39 years of operating history, and integrated parts-and-service capability across a defined southeastern US territory.
